So, I've started this new thing of incorporating texts into my paintings and basically using them as an art journal, writing down my thoughts, ideas and such. I'm allowing the words to mix and merge with other patterns and elements of painting so they are not really legible. But in case you're curious what it says on the image here is the text:

He wore black on black.

Black on black never as a fashion statement. Black on black but never a minimalist. Black on black but not emo.

Black on black but not as a shield, not for protection. Black on black as a source of personal power, as owning his messy, complex, raw self. Black on black as raw power focused and channeled into something constructive.

Black on black as there are no other options. Black on black as Lilith, dark side of the Moon and owning his rage. Black on black as self-mastery.

Black as black ink, incaustum nigrum. Black on black as being fiercely independent. Black on black as being to Hell and back several times and surviving. Black on black as being his own savior.
